I am using CD image and here is part of my /etc/modules. Pay attention to the 'mount', 'umount' and 'dir' commands so you can specify the modules directly from CD and you do not have to copy them to your modules.lrp.

! mount iso9660 /dev/cdrom

# You can directly reference modules, like this:
#/scsi/aic7xxx
#/fs/ext2

# Or change the default directory, like this:
#! dir /lib/modules/net
! dir /lib/modules/2.4.26/kernel/drivers/net

# PCI ethernet cards
#pci-scan
mii
eepro100
# pci-scan required by drivers below...
3c59x


# Masquerading 'helper' modules # Don't remove anything here, unless you know what you are doing # Other modules available in kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter # ! dir /lib/modules/2.4.26/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter

ip_conntrack
ip_conntrack_ftp

...

# the end of file
! umount

Thank you, Jaap.
O.K., that's what I thought. But here's the odd part; I have an /etc/modules
file and a /lib/modules directory IF I use the
Bering-uClibc 2.2.2 floppy image, but not the CD .iso. Is something missing,
or am I doing something wrong?


Thanks,
Craig

I have no experience with the CD image, but from what I see from the ISO, you'd just have to load the modules.lrp package, which has the /etc/modules and /lib/modules in it.

If this doesn't help, maybe somebody else can provide more help.

You have to configure this in the file /etc/modules, which should be
(almost) the same as in Bering. Modules configured here, are loaded from
/lib/modules, so if your NIC's driver (module) is not present, you should
copy it from the modules tarball to /lib/modules.
